What can I say, it’s Pokémon! It’s always fun!! I grew up during the time when Pokémon was released. Playing these games always reminds me of waking up really early before school and watch the first generation of Pokémon on TV. Great times! Every time that I play these games, I feel that nostalgia!!! So, what can I say?!?

It's a good game. Love what they're doing with the franchise. But I wish they would've kept the catching mechanics from Arceus. Other than that it's great

I was excited for this game, but this game suffers from the lack of power the Nintendo Switch brings to the table, the DPS drops when panning camera in the open world make it frustrating to play.

My nephew loves the game. He has both and while they are basically the same game, you have different characters to play with between scarlet and violet. Not sure it’s worth it to get both.

This game js a 9/10 if it had been finished. But Gamefreak wasnt given enough time to do so. The recent update improved a lot of things, but there are still a myriad of issues. Long in short, if you want to get this as a christmas gift to your kids, do it. Theyll love it. If you can enjoy games that have occassional graphical errors, get it. If you think a game should be completely stable before you buy it, stay away.
